So, the only way to get a deal that still brought value was to tweak the ADG implementation.
And while I have no idea whether that is true, you also have no facts supporting your opinion.

Did we really just throw away the differential of 5:15 ADG between June 1 and November?
If true, words absolutely fail me.
Don't know how I could have stated any more strongly that it was my opinions if true.
Thanks for the welcome PG. it's so nice to be missed.
